The file size of the jpeg is more to do with "bits" of information that go into making up the image (jpeg). For example, if you take a photo of a piece of white paper your jpeg may only end up being 1mb or even less. If you take a photo of a sunrise at the beach the jpeg may end up being somewhere around 3 or 4mb. If you take a landscape photo with lots of different trees, leaves, mountains, clouds and other detailed features it means there'll be more bits of information in the jpeg image and it may end up being around 8 or 9mb in file size. Is that more like you were asking about?</blockquote>
